Metro Exodus PC Specs Have Been Revealed

4A Games has released the PC specs for Metro Exodus, the upcoming third entry to the studio’s Metro series. The developer outlines the exact requirements your machine will need to meet in order to achieve minimum, recommended, high, or extreme performance.

Metro Exodus minimum graphical requirements are a tad higher than what you’d see in most games, running at an average performance of 30fps at 1080p. But the game will run on an Intel Core i5 processor and you don’t need a Windows 10 OS. The same cannot be said for recommended performance or higher. To get 60fps or anything higher than 1080p, you’ll need Windows 10 and your PC will need to at least be running on an Intel Core i7 processor.

The full list of specs for each level of performance are listed below, and can also be seen in a comparison chart on Metro Exodus’ main website.

We’re excited for Metro Exodus based on what we’ve seen so far, despite the risky new direction for the series with the addition of large open spaces. The game still feels at its best when it sticks to its roots and puts you into cramped, enclosed locations, though.

Metro Exodus releases for Xbox One, PS4, and PC on February 15.

Here Are Kingdom Hearts 3’s Streaming Rules

Before you get your hands on Kingdom Hearts 3 — currently available in Japan and available in other territories beginning on January 29 — players intending to stream the long-awaited sequel.

Slay the Spire Review

Slay the Spire is one of those games where I found myself sitting alone at my desk just giggling as I played. Not because it’s exceptionally funny – though its well-written encounters can be that – but because some combo of cards that had chanced its way into my hand would just go off, and the result was an absolute thrill. I couldn’t help but laugh because, win or lose, that combo may never show up again. But boy, was it a blast in the moment.

Here’s a genre mix you probably haven’t seen before: Slay the Spire is a deckbuilding roguelike dungeon crawler. Don’t mistake it for a deckbuilding game like Hearthstone or Magic: The Gathering; instead, you pick one of three varied but equally exciting characters with unique card pools and start with a super basic deck. As you work your way up the Spire, you’ll fight increasingly difficult monsters to acquire a randomized selection of new cards that slowly build your deck into something better.

Resident Evil 2: The Story So Far

By the time Leon and Claire reach Raccoon City at the start of Resident Evil 2, the small Midwestern town is already overrun with zombies.

If you’re jumping into the series for the first time with the Resident Evil 2 remake, you might be wondering how things got to this point. Resident Evil 2 is still an acceptable place to jump into the series – featuring a new cast separate from the first game and introducing several key figures for the first time – but if you’re looking to really dig into the story of the series without playing any of the remake’s chronological predecessors (Resident Evil and Resident Evil Zero specifically), then we’ve got you covered.

Follow along for a quick (and very, very condensed) synopsis of the Resident Evil story up to the Resident Evil 2 remake.

The Rock’s Fast & Furious Spin-Off Adds WWE’s Roman Reigns

Even in Hobbs & Shaw, the Fast & Furious spin-off starring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Jason Statham, the word “family” seems to be what matters most. As he tends to do, Johnson has been documenting the process of filming the movie on Instagram and used the social media tool to reveal some news that should be exciting to WWE fans.

The actor’s real-life cousin, WWE superstar Roman Reigns, has been cast to play his brother in the movie. “Good times droppin’ sweat and spillin’ blood with my family, Roman Reigns who’ll be playing my brother in our [Fast & Furious universe],” Johnson wrote. “I’m very proud of his focus, effort and authentic performance in our movie for his very first time on film. I’m also very grateful to spend this quality time with my cousin here in the islands as he takes life one day at a time to recover from leukemia.”

Reigns revealed back in October that he was stepping away from WWE to battle leukemia for the second time in his life. “My real name is Joe, and I’ve been living with leukemia for 11 years,” he said while relinquishing the WWE Universal Championship. “And unfortunately, it’s back. And because the leukemia is back, I cannot fulfill my that role. I can’t be that fighting champion. And I’m going to have to relinquish the Universal Championship.”

While there is no announced timetable for a possible return, he’s clearly keeping busy with some exciting scenes in Hobbs and Shaw, while he also undergoes treatment. The photos posted by Johnson show the two celebrating their heritage by wearing Samoan garb while unleashing some serious brutality on those around them.

Still, even Johnson is anxious for the day Reigns is able to return to WWE. “Can’t wait to see the ‘Big Dog’ return back to the ring–his positive & focused mindset to return is straight up next level,” the actor wrote.

Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw is in theaters on August 2. And for all of your WWE needs, make sure to check out our Royal Rumble coverage, from predictions for every match to everyone set to participate in the massive battle royales.
